SINEAX V 604
Programmable universal transmitter

for DC currents or voltages, temperature sensors,
remote sensors or potentiometers

Application

The universal transmitter SINEAX V 604 (Figures 1 and 2) converts
the input variable – a DC current or voltage, or a signal from a
thermocouple, resistance thermometer, remote sensor or poten­tiometer – to a proportional analogue output signal.

The analogue output signal is either an impressed current or su­perimposed voltage which is processed by other devices for pur­poses of displaying, recording and/or regulating a constant.

A considerable number of measuring ranges including bipolar or
spread ranges are available.

Input variable and measuring range are programmed with the aid
of a PC and the corresponding software. Other parameters relat­ing to specific input variable data, the analogue output signal, the
transmission mode, the operating sense and the open-circuit sen­sor supervision can also be programmed.

The open-circuit sensor supervision is in operation when the SINEAX
V 604 is used in conjunction with a thermocouple, resistance ther­mometer, remote sensor or potentiometer.

The transmitter fulfils all the important requirements and regula­tions concerning electromagnetic compatibility EMC and Safety
(IEC 1010 resp. EN 61 010). It was developed and is manufactured
and tested in strict accordance with the quality assurance stand-
ard ISO 9001.

Production QA is also certified according to guideline 94/9/EG.

Automatic signalling of defects and device failure

Terminals 7 and 12 are also input terminals and are used for meas­uring currents and for voltages which exceed ± 300 mV.

An extremely important component of the input stage is the EMC
filter which protects the transmitter from interference or even de­struction due to induced electromagnetic waves.

From the input stage, the measured variable (e.g. the voltage of a
thermocouple) and the two auxiliary signals (cold junction com­pensation and the open-circuit sensor supervision) go to the multi­plexer (4), which controlled by the micro-controller (6) applies them
cyclically to the A/D converter (5).

The A/D converter operates according to the dual slope principle
with an integration time of 20 ms at 50 Hz and a conversion time of
approximately 38 ms per cycle. The internal resolution is 12 Bit
regardless of measuring range.

The micro-controller relates the measured variable to the auxiliary
signals and to the data which were loaded in the micro-controller’s
EEPROM via the programming connector (7) when the transmitter
was configured. These settings determine the type of measured
variable, the measuring range, the transmission mode (e.g. linearised
temperature/thermocouple voltage relationship) and the operating
sense (output signal directly or inversely proportional to the meas­ured variable). The measured signal is then filtered again, but this
time digitally to achieve the maximum possible immunity to inter­ference. Finally the value of the measured variable for the output
signal is computed. Apart from normal operation, the program­ming connector is also used to transfer measured variables on-line
from the transmitter to the PC or vice versa. This is especially use­ful during commissioning and maintenance.

Principle of operation (Fig. 3)

The measured variable M is stepped down to a voltage between
–300 and 300 mV in the input stage (1). The input stage includes
potential dividers and shunts for this purpose. A constant refer­ence current facilitates the measurement of resistance. Depending
on the type of measurement, either one or more of the terminals 1,
2, 6, 7 and 12 and the common ground terminal 11 are used.

The constant reference current which is needed to convert a varia­tion of resistance such as that of a resistance thermometer, remote
sensor or potentiometer to a voltage signal is available at terminal

6. The internal current source (2) automatically sets the reference
current to either 60 or 380 µA to suit the measuring range. The
corresponding signal is applied to terminal 1 and is used for resist­ance measurement.

Terminal 2 is used for “active” sensors, i.e. thermocouples or other
mV generators which inject a voltage between –300 and 300 mV.
Small currents from the open-circuit sensor supervision (3) are su­perimposed on the signals at terminals 1 and 2 in order to monitor
the continuity of the measurement circuit. Terminal 2 is also con­nected to the cold junction compensation element which is a
Ni 100 resistor built into the terminal block.

Depending on the measured variable and the input circuit, it can
take 0.4 to 1.1 seconds before a valid signal arrives at the opto­coupler (8). The different processing times result from the fact that,
for example, a temperature measurement with a four-wire resist­ance thermometer and open-circuit sensor supervision requires
more measuring cycles than the straight forward measurement of
a low voltage.

The main purpose of the opto-coupler is to provide electrical insu­lation between input and output. On the output side of the opto­coupler, the D/A converter (9) transforms the digital signal back to
an analogue signal which is then amplified in the output stage (10)
and split into two non-electrically isolated output channels. A pow­erful heavy-duty output is available at A1 and a less powerful out­put for a field display unit at A2. By a combination of programming
and setting the 8 DIP switches in the output stage, the signals at
A1 and A2 can be configured to be either a DC current or DC
voltage (but both must be either one or the other). The signal A1 is
available at terminals 9 and 4 and A2 at terminals 8 and 3.

If the micro-controller (6) detects an open-circuit measurement
sensor, it firstly sets the two output signals A1 and A2 to a constant
value. The latter can be programmed to adopt a preset value be­tween –10 and 110% or to maintain the value it had at the instant
the open-circuit was detected. In this state, the micro-controller
also switches on the red LED (11) and causes the green LED (12)
to flash. Via the opto-coupler (8), it also excites the relay driver (13)
which depending on configuration switches the relay (14) to its
energised or de-energised state. The output contact is available at

Camille Bauer 2

terminals 13, 14 and 15. It is used by safety circuits. In addition to
being able to program the relay to be either energised or de-ener­gised, it can also be set to “relay disabled”. In this case, an open­circuit sensor is only signalled by the output signal being held con­stant, the red LED being switched on and the green LED flashing.
The relay can also be configured to monitor the measured variable
in relation to a programmable limit.

The normal state of the transmitter is signalled when the green
LED (12) is continuously lit. As explained above, it flashes should
the measurement sensor become open-circuit. It also flashes, how­ever, if the measured variable falls 10% below the start of the meas­uring range or rises 10% above its maximum value and during the
first five seconds after the transmitter is switched on.

The push-button S1 is for automatically calibrating the leads of a
two-wire resistance thermometer circuit. This is done by temporar­ily shorting the resistance sensor and pressing the button for at

least three seconds. The lead resistance is then automatically meas­ured and taken into account when evaluating the measure vari­able.

The power supply H is connected to terminals 5 and 10 on the
input block (15). The polarity is of no consequence, because the
input voltage is chopped on the primary side of the power block
(16) before being applied to a full-wave rectifier. Apart from the
terminals, the input block (15) also contains an EMC filter which
suppresses any electromagnetic interference superimposed on the
power supply. The transformer block (17) provides the electrical
insulation between the power supply and the other circuits and
also derives two secondary voltages. One of these (5 V) is rectified
and stabilised in (18) and then supplies the electronic circuits on
the input side of the transmitter. The other AC from block (17)
(–16 V / + 18 V) is rectified in (19) and used to supply the relay
driver and the other components on the output side of the trans­mitter.
